Sister Basilia Center Residence
What is SBC Residence?
The Residence is for persons with an intellectual disability.
A home away from home, providing guidance, love, and security.
There is a total care group, where clients receive full assistance in all of their activities of daily living. There is also a guided living group. Clients prepare themselves to live semi-independently by learning how to do daily chores, personal hygiene and find their way in the community. During weekdays our residential clients will participate in the program of the Day Activity Center.
Admission criteria
Required documents:
-
A letter by a psychiatrist, psychologist, or medical specialist stating that the client has an intellectual disability (must have at least a two-year developmental delay in two or more of these areas: cognitive, motor, communication, social development, independence)
-
Copy of valid Sint Maarten ID card or copy of proof of registration from Census (not older than six months)
-
Copy of residence permit (if applicable)
-
Medical history letter from a general practitioner or involved specialist
Follow up
After the documents are received, we meet with the client and family. The AVBZ care request form is completed and sent to the AVBZ with the documents and the report of the social worker. Once approved and with sufficient space, the admission date is planned. If there is no space open, the client is placed on the waiting list.
